All conversation fades as I see him across the room. Before I can question my actions I am on my feet and heading towards him.

ìHi.î

He looks at me and then into me. His soul greets mine. I donít know if heís even aware heís doing it.

ìHi.î

ìIíve missed you.î

ìYou too.î

This was painful. I knew all the arguments against us being together but I didnít care anymore. I wanted him and I knew he wanted me. Everyone else could go to hell!

ìDíyou want a drink?î

ìYeah, soda.î

I watched him as he made his way to the bar. Glancing over my shoulder I motioned to Willow who nodded and scuttled off to the DJ.

ìHere.î He handed me my drink.

I heard the first few notes of a song. Putting my drink down I took his hand.

ìDance with me.î

I didnít wait for an answer as I dragged him onto the dancefloor.

ëIíve been meaning to tell you

Iíve got this feeling that wonít subside

I look at you and I fantasize

Youíre mine tonight

Now Iíve got you in my sights

With these hungry eyes

One look at you and I canít disguise

Iíve got hungry eyes

I feel the magic between you and IÖí

I rubbed myself against him sensuously and heard a low growl come from deep within his throat. I knew what I was doing to him. This was make or break time for us. Since the binding there was no reason why we couldnít be together. I just had to break down his defences and convince him of that.

ëI want to hold you so hear me out

I want to show you what loveís all about

Darliní tonight

Now Iíve got you in my sightsÖí

He was beginning to respond to me know. His grip became tighter as we both moved to the music.

ëI need you to see

This love was meant to beÖí

He bent down and purred in my ear, ìLetís get out of here.î

I looked up at him and asked innocently, ìWhy?î

His smile said it all. As I followed him towards the door I offered up silent thanks that my Mom had made me sit through Dirty Dancing.
